Jim Leonhard has a gripe with the media

Jim Leonhard voiced his opinion on twitter about how the media will ask a question and depending on how the player answers he thinks that they are damned if they do or don’t on what they say. Jim said this during media day at the super bowl.

He states that the media will make something controversial when it isn’t. Well yeah, Jim. It’s called selling papers, getting eyes on their content online, and causing people to talk about THEIR story.

I love media trying to make a story out of players saying they “expect to win”. Seriously. That’s why everyone plays, to win, esp a Ring.

Which is better answer:”we’re going to play hard and see what happens” or “If we play our best and they play theirs, we think we will win.”?

Fans hate when athletes use cliches, but the media makes it controversial if they don’t. It forces most players to not show personality.

Report the news, don’t over sensationalize. You can’t believe anything in the news anymore because someone belives this is more important: ”It’s called selling papers, getting eyes on their content online, and causing people to talk about THEIR story.” Oh why of course, THEIR story. That’s the one that was generated, twisted, and taken out of context…
